Week 4 Of Mural.

So far so good, it is almost completed but there is still some major things to do. Sounds contradicting right? This visit to Fuchun primary was not reproductive as what we intended. As this is our school holidays (some holiday it turned out to be), only 3 of the group members turned up. Hopefully next week, we'll get perfect attendance and it'll be completed.

Blue Foam Week 2!




Stage 2 of my blue foam is to cut and shape the rectangular foam into the shape of a turtle's back. As seen from the picture above, it is quite tedious. Again, the weather is another negative factor that is affecting our progress. Our class seems to be working like factory workers but then again, there are those that are too tired so they take a nap. Oh well, hope it's a promising session next week.

Week 3 Mural!






Well, just as we planned. Week 3 was definately outstanding. The teamwork made our progress increased rapidly. I guess we just need 2 more weeks before we could finish the whole mural. Hopefully things work out. Oh well.

Blue Foam


This is another new 3d project! This time it is blue foam. Yes, it sounds cool! But hell no. It's a very messy project and it drains your strength cutting it and sticking it. As shown in the picture, I'm standing on the foam to make it stick with two layers. The foam are joined together by sticking it with an adhesive spray.

Week 2 Mural




Week 2 was pretty slow progress. Maybe it was due to the humid tormenting weather. However, we survived! We started by painting the flag poles grey and outlining the flags and also the figures below the flag. I don't think the group was satisfied with the work that we had done. Oh well, we learn from our mistakes. Hopefully, the 3rd week would be a promising and productive week for mural. Anyway, if you are wondering why the pictures are uploaded in a 'turn back time' way, it's because I want it that way! It's on purpose because I think it's a more creative manner to show our diligent work. Hahas..

Leaving The Legacy Behind



After a long week, C day's project of facial expression is done. The portraits are painted with only black and white paint.

Artist Statement

A photographer by the name of Ken Rockwell once said ‘An artist fixes his imagination in a tangible form called a photograph. He captures the spirit of place or person, real or imagined, in this photograph and the viewer responds to this.’

From young, I have been fascinated with images. It first started as a hobby but soon it grew into something that I would consider to be my passion. Photography tells a lot of things when the image is captured with a single click. I feel that a photograph tells me more than what most typical individual would think. However, it tells me a story and the mood of the source. To many, photography is very simple and boring, it doesn’t involve any hands on like painting or drawing. There is more than meets the eyes. The ambience is one of the key factors that play an important role of making the image a good piece of photography. Gradually over the years, photography has become popular. My favourite photography images would be seeing nature in digital eyes. It’s very sad to see Mother Nature being destroyed. Who knows one day the photography of nature would be priceless. I hope to capture these images, which in the future will be the past.
